If reducing stress is an important part of the weight loss puzzle, it becomes imperative to find ways to accomplish this. Meditation has been well-established as a means of stress reduction, which suggests it may be a powerful weapon in your weight loss arsenal. Moreover, studies have found that meditation led to a reduction in cortisol levels specifically.
Much of our stress in life comes, not from Tibetan Baicao Tea what is happening, but, from our perception of the situation, how we view things. While we may not be able to master our emotions completely, we can make significant strides in handling them better and how we respond to the issues in our life. Meditation helps strengthen this space where we can observe what is going on and choose our response, rather than just automatically reacting in habitual ways that are not good for us. We may still feel stress, but we will be better equipped to handle it because we will have an increased awareness of what is actually happening in the moment.
Meditation may also help with your weight loss goals because this increased ability to observe your thoughts and feelings will help you become more aware of one vital point in handling negative emotions more effectively…that they are fleeting and in constant flux. This is something we know but have a hard time processing experientially and when things happen that do not make us feel good, we look for an immediate way to quell the bad feelings.
For many of us, that quelling takes the form of emotional eating, one of the biggest stumbling blocks to lasting weight loss. When you develop a greater awareness of the impermanence of your bad feelings, you will be able to sit with them with less discomfort, and feel less inclined to turn to food to feel better. You know it will pass and you will feel less temptation to chase after that immediate boost that comes from eating, which is soon followed by guilt, self-criticism and judgment.
